RE: China pledges to create a national park that will be three times the size of Yellowstone – all to protect fragmented populations of giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca)
We do everything we can to retailer the large panda because we are the ones that have pushed it to the area of extinction. And because we can.
But pandas also play a essential role in China's bamboo forests by using spreading seeds and supporting the vegetation to grow.
So by way of saving pandas, we will also be saving so tons more. We will be helping to shield now not solely these unique forests but additionally the wealth of species that live in them, such as dwarf blue sheep and lovely multi-coloured pheasants.
That's a very good point! The area in the new park does of course also house a whole range of other species, and I'm sure there are other endangered animals that will benefit nicely from this area being protected! Thanks for pointing this out :)
